User:Ruth Truong/sandbox/Draft for Updated BAC-LAC GLAM page
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
N.B.: I am not trying to plagiarize the BAC-LAC GLAM page. I am a practicum student at BAC-LAC for summer 2019 and I am drafting and testing changes to the GLAM page.
Welcome to the GLAM page of Library and Archives Canada (LAC). This page will cover all the projects and events undertaken by LAC as part of its collaboration with the GLAM initiative. Using our vast collection, we will be focusing on sharing resources to enhance, enrich and fill the knowledge gap within Wikimedia projects.
LAC's collection includes a large number of books (more than 20 million in several languages), images (almost 30 million including photographs, prints and digital images), films (over 90 thousand including documentaries as well as silent, short and full-length films), newspaper archives, sheet music, drawings, plans, maps and other materials[1].
